Super Easy Hunger Games Braided Bun

Introduction: Super Easy Hunger Games Braided Bun

Even though this bun looks really hard to do, it's super easy and fairly quick. All you need is 2 ponytail holders (clear if possible), a comb, a brush, and several bobby pins. (By the way, the thing in the far right of almost every picture is a stuffed horse. I was doing this on my sister and she decided to read while holding her horse. Sorry about that!)

Step 1:

The first thing you need to do is to part your hair in the middle all the way down your head. Using a comb will really help, but it isn't absolutely necessary.

Step 2:

Next, pull half of your hair into a ponytail holder and dutch braid the other half. (If you don't know how to dutch braid, click on this link.http://www.wikihow.com/Make-a-Dutch-Braid Basically, it's just like french braiding, except you pull the strands under instead of over.) Secure the braid with a ponytail holder.

Step 3:

Braid the other half of the hair and secure with a ponytail holder. Then, cross the braids to make an "X."

Step 4:

Take the end of the braid on the left and tuck it into the braid that's attached to the head to form a loop. Use bobby pins to secure the braid. Repeat with the braid on the right. It should vaguely resemble a pretzel.
